Rochester Electronics Logic - Logic - Flip Flops - MC74AC74D MC74AC74D

The MC74AC74D is a dual D-type flip-flop featuring asynchronous clear and set inputs, along with complementary outputs. It operates on the positive edge of the clock pulse, ensuring that data is transferred to the outputs only after the clock signal transitions. The device includes independent clear and set functions that can be activated regardless of the clock state. This flip-flop can source or sink up to 24 mA of current, making it suitable for various applications requiring moderate output drive capabilities. The MC74AC74D is designed with TTL-compatible inputs and is available in a Pb-free package, aligning with modern environmental standards. It operates within a supply voltage range of 2.0V to 6.0V for AC devices and 4.5V to 5.5V for ACT devices, with a specified operating temperature range of -40¬8C to 85¬8C. Engineers considering this component should note its performance characteristics, including setup and hold times, which are critical for timing-sensitive applications. The device is packaged in a 14-lead SOIC format, facilitating integration into compact designs.
